In the Fall

sometimes it has to cry

don't ask it why

it has to cry

let the tears fall

where they may

who are we to say

that they

should not fall

at all

who are we to

call the weather

who are we to

set the tone

of another

who are we to say

that's not my

brother

just because

we don't have

the same mother

often we cry the

same tears

even though we

do not know

each other

so before we stop

to criticize

someone's cry

remember we are

all in this together

when the storm strikes

we all get hit with

the weather

sometimes it has to cry

don't ask it why
